Law List

* * * * *

EPIGRAM FROM THE SPANISH OF REBOLLEDO.

(For the Mirror.)

  Fair Phillis has fifty times registered vows,
  That of Christian or Turk, she would ne’er be the spouse,
    For wedlock so much she disdain’d,
  And neither of these she has married, ’tis true,
  For now she’s the wife of a wealthy old Jew;
    And thus she her vow has maintain’d!

E.L.J.

THE LAWYER AND HIS CLIENT.

  Two lawyers, when a knotty cause was o’er,
  Shook hands and were as good friends as before,
  “Zounds!” says the losing client, “how come yaw
    To be such friends, who were such foes just naw?”
  “Thou fool,” says one, “we lawyers tho’ so keen,
  Like shears, ne’er cut ourselves, but what’s between.”
